Soft and fluffy dough filled with a spinach mix, a part of Lebanese mezze.

Ingredients

For the dough

1 Tsp active dried yeast

150ml Warm water

1 Cups all-purpose-flour

1 Tbsp Al Wadi Al Akhdar extra virgin olive oil

1 Tsp sugar

½ Tsp salt

For the filling

200g Al Wadi Al Akhdar frozen coarse chopped spinach, thawed

¼ Cup Al Wadi Al Akhdar olive oil

1 Tbsp sumac

1 Tsp paprika

1 Tbsp Al Wadi Al Akhdar Pomegranate Molasses

Step 1

Dilute yeast in water and let stand until mixture develops a frothy foam; about 10 minutes. If mixture does not foam, discard and start over with new yeast.

Step 2

In the bowl of an electrical robot, combine flour, olive oil, sugar, salt and yeast. Turn on a low speed for about 15 minutes or until the dough comes together leaving the sides of the bowl clean. Add little flour if needed.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and leave it in a warm place for about 1 hour to rise.

Step 4

Meantime, prepare the filling. Start by squeezing the spinach to get out the juice to dry.
